Which statement best justifies that the function h(x)=sin⁡(3x2+6)h(x)=\sin(3x^{2}+6) is continuous for all real numbers? (a) Because sin⁡(3x2+6)\sin(3x^{2}+6) contains no denominators or square-roots, there are no points where it is undefined, so it is continuous. (b) Because sin⁡x\sin x is differentiable everywhere, its composition with any function is automatically continuous. (c) Because both sin⁡x\sin x and the polynomial 3x2+63x^{2}+6 are continuous everywhere, and the composition of two continuous functions is continuous. (d) Because the range of sin⁡x\sin x is bounded between −1-1 and 11, eliminating discontinuities.
